The healing potion quickly took effect, and William, lying motionless on the ground, twitched slightly.
"Ah, hu..." A long sound came from William's mouth, and he had regained consciousness.
"Thank you." A faint voice emerged from William, accompanied by a spurt of dark blood.
"Mm." Wen Yu placed another bottle of healing potion beside William and turned to walk towards the writhing Chu Ziling not far away.
...
Wen Yu sat down on the sandy ground and lit a cigarette.
Nearby, Chu Ziling's waist emitted a series of creaking sounds.
This was the sound of bones healing under the effect of the healing potion.
"Want to smoke?" Wen Yu directly offered the cigarette to Chu Ziling.
"Help me light it."
Due to the spinal injury, Chu Ziling was paralyzed and unable to control his hands.
Wen Yu shoved the cigarette into Chu Ziling's mouth and lit another for himself.
"Hu." Chu Ziling exhaled a cloud of smoke and asked Wen Yu, "What happened earlier?"
Chu Ziling had fallen in the direction behind the ancient demon and did not see the scene of Big Bear's self-detonation.
"Big Bear is dead. He heavily injured the ancient demon before dying, and then told me to kill it."
"He's a real man!"
Chu Ziling's response was somewhat heavy, mixed with a bit of admiration.
"Not just a man, but also an excellent soldier."
The voice came from Jiang Wentao, who was approaching from not far away.
"Let's hurry and leave. I'm afraid something else might happen on Princess Consort Fina's side."
Jiang Wentao said to Wen Yu.
In a short time, Jiang Wentao's legs had grown back. It seemed he had consumed quite a bit of healing potion.
"Let's go."
Wen Yu extinguished his cigarette, hoisted the fallen Chu Ziling onto his shoulder, and said, "You carry William, and let's move."
After taking two steps, he turned back to Jiang Wentao and asked, "Which direction did they go?"
It was no wonder Wen Yu was confused.
Under the sky filled with yellow sand, after the fierce battle, his sense of direction had completely vanished.
Jiang Wentao took out a device the size of a smartphone from his Spatial Ring, pressed the display while saying to Wen Yu, "The monkey has a tracking device on him. I can find them. Follow me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Wentao quickly reached William's side, scooped him up, and headed east.
...
In the midst of the yellow sand, a group was slowly moving towards the east.
It was Princess Consort Fina and the others.
"Brother Monkey, do you think Wen Yu and the others..."
Sun Aotian hesitated and didn’t finish his sentence.
It was understandable for Sun Aotian to have such worries, considering he had only seen a few terrifying demonic creatures and their charging momentum, which was enough to frighten someone of his level.
Monkey frowned and said, "Stop thinking about that random stuff. Stay in your position and protect Princess Consort Fina!"
With the absence of powerhouses above level three, the task of commanding the group fell to Monkey.
"Okay."
Sun Aotian replied and moved to stand behind Princess Consort Fina.
This position was specifically arranged by Monkey for Sun Aotian, showing care for the little guy.
"Stop, stop! There's danger ahead. Prepare to fight!!!"
Basong, who was at the front, immediately called out, brandishing his steel knife.
His previous performance had made everyone trust Basong's judgment completely!
"Everyone, stand in your pre-set positions!"
Monkey shouted from the back, quickly pulling out two Demon-Modified Submachine Guns and moving to the front to stand beside Basong, asking, "What's going on? Why bring us this way when we know there's danger ahead?"
Basong smiled bitterly.
"This direction is the least dangerous."
Monkey fell silent on the spot, but he took out one plasma grenade after another and handed them to the several professionals in the front row.
"If monsters appear, throw them immediately; I have plenty!"
As a firepower specialist, Monkey was equipped with more plasma bombs than even Big Bear!
Not far away, seven figures emerged from the sea of yellow sand.
